I was born in southern India in a place called Thiruvattar, which is located in Kanyakumari district of the state of Tamil Nadu. But I was brought up in Trivandrum which is the capital city of the Kerala State. I had my education in the Fort High School, Mar Ivanios College and College of Agriculture before I obtained my B. Sc. in agriculture in 1960 from Kerala University and left Trivandrum for working as an agricultural supervisor in an agricultural research station in Viramgam located in the northern part of Gujerat State. From Viramgam I moved to Anand to study dairy technology at The Dairy Science College before I worked at Amul Dairy as a technical Officer. I have also worked as a Project Executive with National Dairy Development Board of India in Anand after having my advanced education in dairy technology in Sweden. From Anand I came to Sweden for higher studies with a full scholarship from Sweden. At present I am living in a small town in Sweden called Lund doing research and teaching at the Lund Institute of Technology of Lund University.

 I have special relation to Kyoto in Japan where I lived as a post doctorate research fellow with a scholarship from the Sweden-Japan foundation for research and development and Quito in Ecuador where I have been collaborating with Prof. Jenny Ruales of Escuela Politecnica Nacional since 1985 with financial assistance from International Science Programs in Uppsala Sweden.

 I have been a scientific adviser to International Foundation for science and a member of the editorial board of the scientific journal Food Chemistry. I continue to referee articles submitted for publication in Medical Principles and Practices (Kuwait).

 I am also a member of World Wide Fund, Swedish Red Cross Society and Save the children foundation.

I like to visit other countries to learn about different cultures and I have been to many countries of Europe, Asia, Africa and Latin America. I also like to, read autobiographies, listen to music, do photographic work in the darkroom, cook food for my friends and play with children.
